CjPKTiDWAY classic No. 21 awaits the starting flag and on Tuesday morning at 10 o’clock the dare devils of the whizzing wheels will roar away on another five-century grind out at the Indianapolis brick course. The thrill-seeking sports fans will be there in throngs, some to glue their eyes on the flying mounts of steel and others to make of the day one big picnic. The dyed-in-the-wool auto race goer usually manages “to come up” with the price of admission to the 500-mile race regardless of what happens to his business or job. It’s on his household budget and calendar as a “must.” Anyway, any average Hoosier rates himself an expert on speed and he would be embarrassed no end if he missed out on one of the international sweepstakes and was caught short on eyewitness information.
a a a There’s Class in Field nnHE of starters this year -* includes four former 500-mile dinners ar.cUalso a number of daring pilots who race right along with the kings of the dizzy whirl. Courage, plus driving skill, describes ihese followers of the hazardous life wht risk their “all" striving to set records and capture the world-wide glory and acclaim that goes with winning the event. Fred Frame won last year and he beat a strong field and pre-race dopesters around the track this spring think he stands and excellent chance of repeating. Tommy Milton was the lone repeater in the classic, finishing victorious in 1921 and 1023. Other former winners ready for the "go" signal Tuesday are Louie Schneider, Louis Meyer and L. L. Corum, the last named being coupled with Boyer in winning the 1924 race. Meyer v.on in 1928 and Schneider in 1931. a u n English Derby Broadcast THE 150th running of the English Derby will be described over an NBC-WEAF network at 7:30 a. m-, Central time,.on Wednesday.

Short Louisville Trip Disastrous to Tribe Memories of 1932 Linger On as Colonels Trounce Indians in Double-Header; Hoosiers Invade Columbus Tuesday for Twin Bill; No Game Today. BY EDDIE ASH The bargain diamond bill at Parkway field. Louisville, Sunday was a bad bargain for Red Killefer’s Indians when the Colonels of Bruns Betzel annexed both ends of the double header, 4 to 2, and 3 to 1. The second tilt was held to seven inings by rain. It was Killefer’s first visit to Derbytown as new manager of the Hoosiers and the Colonels gave him something to remember them tyy. Last year double defeats in Louisville were a regular thing to the Tribesmen and it seems as though the old jinx is still working. The Indians were in first place on the morning of July 4, 1932. but two setbacks at the hands of the Colonels in Louisville that afternoon knocked the Hoosiers out of the league lead and they never got back up there.

Marcum Beats Thomas Bill Thomas, ace of the Tribe staff, opposed Footsie Marcum in the opener at Louisville Sunday, and it was a neat mound struggle, a three-run rally in the seventh bringing victory to the Colonels. The winners collected ten hits to seven for the losers. The other Colonel marker was chalked up in the second round. Indianapolis scored in the fourth and seventh. Wingard and Thomas each got two hits for the Indians and Layne smacked out three for the Colonels.

Seven safeties w'ere collected by the Indians and six by the Colonels.

Attendance at the Louisville twin attraction Sunday was 3,143. It was designated as “Art Funk day,” in honor of the New Albany Hoosier w'ith the Colonels. The double defeat pulled the Indians out of the first division, and they were fifth today. The Indians have dropped three games in a row after going in sw'ift fashion for a time. They were upset by Toledo in the night game here Saturday, 6 to 1, when Ralph Winegarner struck out ten and the Hens staged a heavy attack with the bludgeon.
Negro Diamond Rivals Divide Third and deciding game of the series was carded at Perry stadium today between American Giants of Indianapolis and the Nashville (Tennj Elites, National Negro League diamond rivals. They broke even in Sunday’s double header, Cornelius pitching the Giants to an 8 to 5 victory in the lidlifter, while Willis checked the locals in the nightcap.

Babe Clouts Trio of Homers Before 50,000 Yankees Win Two as Ruth Ties Gehrig for League Lead; Hildebrand Gets Second Setback; Giants Drop to Third in N. L. BY JACK CUDDY United Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK. May 29. —Just when the fans were beginning to fear that Babe Ruth's batting eye and wallop were succumbing to his 39 years, the famous collector of four-baggers stepped out and spurted into a tie for leadership in the American League's home run procession. The Bambino, baseball's master showman, chose an opportune time to spurt into a tie with Lou Gehrig, his team-mate,
Sunday by driving out three homers before more than 50.0 CC fans at Yankee stadium. His three circuit clouts aided the Yanks in lengthening their American League lead by beating Chicago, 2 to 1, and 9 to 7, in a twin bill, dropping the Chisox from a third-place tie to fifth position. Ruth gave the Yanks their first tally in the opener with a homer in the first frame, and after singling in the sixth, he came home with the winning run when Tony Lazzeri hit into a double play with the bases loaded. In the night cap, Babe made another homer in the first inning with a mate aboard, and drove out the third in the seventh frame. Philadelphia remained in third place although beaten, 7 to 4, by Washington. Cleveland advanced to fourth place by splitting a double--header with Boston. The Red Sox took the opener, 5 to 2. aided by a four-
run spurt in the fifth, but the Indians took the sleeper, 11 to 2, pounding Andrews and Welch for sixteen hits. Oral Hildebrand suffered his second defeat of the season in the opener. St. Louis downed Detroit, 5 to 3, after five hits and tw’o Tiger misplays in the sixth were combined for four runs.
The St. Louis Cardinals replaced New' York at second place in the National League by beating the Phillies twice, 8 to 7. and 5 to 3. A five-run rally in the seventh frame opener, and a three-run spurt in the first frame of the nightcap. Chicago rose to a fourth-place tie W'ith Cincinnati by taking two games from Boston. 5 to 1 and 3 to 2. featured by Bud Tinning’s relief hurling in the first contest, and three Chicago singles in the ninth frame of the nightcap for the winning run. Brooklyn replaced Boston at sixth position by snapping out of a fivegame losing streak to beat New York, 5 to 4, when Hack Wilson's double drove in the winning run in the seventh. Pittsburgh beat Cincinnati, 4 to 2, in the opener, but lost the second contest, 4 to 0, when Rixey gave up only five hits.
